I 'v ealso see five 1930's Bugattis ranging from 1 to 5 million dollars. I've also seen the Batmobile (Old & New) Heep 03-20-2001, 07:16 AM Hey Carmaster.... I've recently learned that there is a mint Delorean being stored in the basement of a local towing company's building. I'm planning on going to see it sometime soon. I'm rather excited since I've always loved them but never seen one. carmaster 03-20-2001, 02:50 PM I saw mine at a car show, but why would you really want to keep one, unless it was in the movie or your a millionaire car collector that wants everything. Porsche 03-20-2001, 05:58 PM There wasn't a whole lot made, so made it is a collector's item. It also may hold some kind of sentimental value to the owner. kleptoman 03-22-2001, 09:46 PM You guys are thinking too mainstream. How about Lotus,Vector,Aston Martin Vantage,M5,8-series BMW,Morgans,Delorean,AMC,Muscle cars. But I understand that those cars are not special. Thank you kleptoman 03-22-2001, 09:53 PM But those Deloreans aren't too rare or exspensive but they're cool as hell and those Volvo tuned V-6's they got sound good. My uncle's got one he got it for about 15 grand. kleptoman 03-22-2001, 09:59 PM as for me my rare finds are 3 8-series beamers 2 lotus esprits 100+ vette's obviously 2 mclaren's both at the NY auto show 3 AMC javelins 4 lamborginis one kit acouple of 911's 3 supras acouple of RX-7's The BATMOBILE which is cool 3 prowlers and that's all I can think of but I hate supras Heep 03-23-2001, 08:37 AM I've seen a couple of Diablo's, but I've never seen a Countach, and I desperately want to..... carmaster 03-23-2001, 10:18 AM Damn, I can't wait to see a vector in real life! toofer101 04-06-2001, 10:50 PM Bets are that you dont even know what it is. For those of you honest enough to admit it. 1969 Sebring Greenwood Corvette. toofer101 04-06-2001, 10:52 PM It looks as fast standing still. toofer101 04-06-2001, 10:54 PM Bubba Bean Bandit 04-09-2001, 10:38 AM As I visit quite every time the car show in geneva and sometimes go to the cote azur in south france I saw quite every expensive car existing. From Aston Martin to Volvo:bandit: Porsche 04-09-2001, 12:18 PM If you've been to France, have you ever seen any new Buggattis actually have you seen any Buggattis at all? unite@af 04-09-2001, 12:23 PM Too many to list Porsche 04-11-2001, 09:39 AM As stated in Philosphizing, I saw a sweet 2001 BMW M5 yesterday. Heep 04-11-2001, 02:44 PM Just got back from the Suby dealer, I was checking out a couple new WRX's. Pretty cool little cars. Not much else faster for the money. Porsche 04-11-2001, 04:43 PM What does the WRX Sti cost? In CDN? Heep 04-11-2001, 08:23 PM These were just regular WRX's, not STI's. I actually asked the guy if they were planning on making an STI for North America, but he said that they wouldn't pass emissions. However, all the STI pieces are easy to add, if you want to re-install the stock exhaust every emissions check :) These were completely un-optioned cars (it's got way more than enough standard features to keep you going), they were both $34,995 base plus $1000 freight, etc. $35,995 Canadian overall. Bean Bandit 04-17-2001, 09:27 AM Originally posted by Porsche If you've been to France, have you ever seen any new Buggattis actually have you seen any Buggattis at all? For real if you drive down the ocean avenue and keeping your eyes open you'll see Buggattis of all kind. So for every one who can stand out the punishment of seeing ugly fat old topless women should go to the cote azur for the sightseeing the have all you want (car related):bandit: Porsche 04-17-2001, 05:00 PM Nice. :) I thought it was Cote d'azur? I only know that because it is an awesome course in NFS5 and My friend went there before. flylwsi 07-07-2001, 04:31 PM how bout in just one driveway? my friend used to have: first set of cars... yellow 300zx tt (reworked for about 500hp) along with a full custom $75k harley... second set of cars... new bike (harley night train, full custom) a viper r/t 10 black lexus gs400 loaded, right when they came out, he got it as a bonus from work a taurus sho ( i know) and a 98 vette (this is back in 97) third set... viper gts coupe dodge ram that matched the viper w/fittipaldi rims on it lexus land cruiser fourth set... ferrari 348 in yellow with some fikse racing wheels and tubi exh vette night train harley (nos on it) harley touring bike w/ mystic flames lexus gs400 expedition and a mercedes suv on 18s newest set of cars... porsche turbo(500hp) w/chrome 18in 3 piece turbo wheels both harleys the vette the mercedes and a black e55amg the front wheels on the vette are the only ones smaller than 18s... everything else is rollin 18s... or bigger... hell... that is a shit load of cars to see at all, let alone in one driveway... Porsche 07-07-2001, 07:06 PM That guy sounds loaded out of his mind. He should sell everything and get a 288 GTO. hermunn123 07-07-2001, 07:45 PM hey enzo.... isn't the RS4 euro only?? Porsche 07-07-2001, 10:01 PM Not really sure, I think they sell them in the US in very few numbers. I'm sure that I 've seen tests done on them in the US. aren't they mostly race models anyways? violinandy 07-08-2001, 02:54 AM ummm, the best car I have ever seen on the street is probably a 2 way tie between a ferrari f550 and a porsche gt2 Bean Bandit 07-15-2001, 09:10 AM Originally posted by Porsche Nice. :) I thought it was Cote d'azur? I only know that because it is an awesome course in NFS5 and My friend went there before. you're right it's correctly spelld Côte d'azur:bandit: flylwsi 07-15-2001, 11:18 AM yeah, he has cash on the rs4... it is only euro it has 380hp and recaros... two things that i have yet to see in an audi on this side of the atlantic... at least a stock one... and just b/c they are tested here, they arent available... or we would all have one... Nikezon 09-24-2001, 01:45 PM Some of the cars I've seen: Mercedes CLKGTR (#10/25) McLaren F1 Porsche 996 GT2 Ferrari F50 Lamborghini Diablo Those are probbly the rarest cars I seen..... McLaren F1 Guy 09-06-2003, 04:55 PM Two McLaren F1's, if we go even rarer than that I've seen a Diablo Millenium Roadster. diablo roadster 09-08-2003, 12:45 AM on the road: mclaren 250 gt california spider SWB at a dealer: 3 other mclarens ferrari f50gt mercedes clk-gtr (race version) 4 xj220 (1 was twr) a lot of 1offs i cant remember right now zackiedawg 09-10-2003, 12:51 PM Unfortunately I live in South Florida. Exotic cars are no longer exotic because of the proliferation of them all over the roads. With Mercedes, BMW, and Audi being our version of Civics and Camrys…we become pretty jaded as far as what is impressive to see. Since I see at least one Ferrari, Aston Martin, Rolls Royce, and Bentley each day, they no longer have the awesome effect they may have elsewhere. So here are at least two cars that still manage to impress in person even in South Florida: Enzo: http://www.funtigo.com/go/h1288745?i=h1288745_17082.jpg http://www.funtigo.com/go/h1288743?i=h1288743_79192.jpg http://www.funtigo.com/go/h1288742?i=h1288742_25185.jpg http://www.funtigo.com/go/h1288741?i=h1288741_20000.jpg F40: http://pstr-m05.ygpweb.aol.com/data2/00F/50/86/C6/C1/a3Yy60PHP5LtK8VlEmS43LrZsrNuXbxB0180.jpg http://pstr-m03.ygpweb.aol.com/data2/009/09/B4/0D/EC/AvXalWzI7qm3p55spvgHjs6AkjsD5y0c0180.jpg I keep the digicam ready to go, because many of my out-of-state friends cannot believe that I could go for a 1 hour drive, and come back with dozens of pictures of Ferraris and Aston Martins. So they tested me one weekend. I e-mailed them these pics, taken on the same drive on the same day: Rolls Royces and Bentleys: http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i714045_21992.jpg http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i714055_80980.jpg Ferrari 360s: http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i714048_28750.jpg http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i795529_50472.jpg http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i795536_22626.jpg Aston Martins: http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i795525_71204.jpg http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i714051_51466.jpg Mercedes AMG: http://www.funtigo.com/go?i=i714049_74725.jpg Cayenne (and big house): http://www.funtigo.com/go/o714058?i=o714058_57461.jpg Pretty crazy, huh?! So my list would be nearly impossible to count or list. Maybe 300 Ferrari 360s. Maybe 25 Murcielagos, and at least 50 Diablos. 200+ Bentleys or Rolls. At least 100 Aston Martins. Literally THOUSANDS of Mercedes S-Classes, M-series BMWs, and Audi S-models. And that’s just this year so far! It’s pretty nutty down here! kfoote 09-12-2003, 04:42 PM How about a vehicle that there were less than 10 of made? About 10 yrs ago on I-91 in CT, I saw an Oscar Meyer Wienermobile. It's about the only vehicle I've only seen one of. TheScientist 09-12-2003, 10:54 PM I saw a DeLorean once, a number of Benz 600s, and my best friend's mom owns an SL600. I've stood next to a 1957 Edsel Citation convertible, a Ferrari 456M, 575M, 550 Maranello, Bentley Arnage R, Rolls Royce Phantom, Maybach 62, BMW 850Csi, Ferrari 333SP I think it is, and a whole bunch more, but nothing as exotic as the Enzo or McLaren, only at car shows. arthur12187 09-13-2003, 07:25 PM hey enzo.... isn't the RS4 euro only?? I think u can buy it and have it imported by boat or plane or something like that! eithet 10-09-2003, 12:12 AM I have seen a countach kit car, several vipers, several mid 60's corvettes, and a friend of mine, has a delorean, awesome car, he's working on restoring it.. that's about it, oh and a guy in town has like 4 911s, all different years.. they are stored at a car shop that specializes in european cars.. MRfaboLAOS 10-21-2003, 05:25 PM Here In Chicago High Class Cars Are Everywhere. Ive Seen Almost Every Ferrari Availible Except For That New Enzo. Porshes Are Like 3 Per Block.

Ive Seen Almost Every Ferrari Availible Except For That New Enzo. Porshes Are Like 3 Per Block. Bentlys Are Here N There. Im Only In Chicago Durring The Daytime Once In A While. But At Night Is When The Big Boys Come Out. Ive Seen Like 20 Supras That Have Kicked My Uncles Ass On The Highway And 2 Nissan Skylines Prowling In The Burbs. Lambos Also Seen On The Highway But Never Gotten To See One Of Them Open Up The V12's Throttle. There Are Too Many Cars To Name, But The One I Absolutely Love Was When I Was In Florida, Where I Seen A 1998 Campagna Trex. Omg These Things Are Too Cold. Amzing They Are Street Legal. Maxxcrazy 10-22-2003, 02:36 PM porshce 911 GT2 white2abbit 10-23-2003, 11:46 PM Here we go: (All numbers are approximate, unless its "1") *I consider this amazing considering I live in Canada, not Hollywood, etc.) Countless Porsche 911 Carrera's 50 Porsche 911 Turbo's 10 Ferrari 360 Modenas 5 Ferrari 360 Spiders 10 Ferrari 355's and 355 Spider's 1 Ferrari 550 Maranello 1 Ferrari 575M Maranello 1 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage 1 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish 1 Lamborghini Murciélago 3 Lamborghini Diablo's 5 Acura NSX's 5 Mercedes Benz SL55 AMG's 1 Bentley Arnage T Red Label Funkdeal 10-23-2003, 11:54 PM i saw an 88 geo storm. it was so awesome. it had a muti-color paint job and 20 inch reeims that keep spinning. it also had a nos sticker, so that probably means it's really fast. it had awesome yellow tint too. white2abbit 10-23-2003, 11:57 PM i saw an 88 geo storm. it was so awesome. it had a muti-color paint job and 20 inch reeims that keep spinning. it also had a nos sticker, so that probably means it's really fast. it had awesome yellow tint too. YOU'D BETTER BE JOKING, THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE SHITTIEST PIECE OF SHIT IN A SHITTY AUTOMOBILE THAT IS A PILE OF SHIT. lol sorry for the language, but bcuz a car has a NOS sticker means jack. sooo many riced out cars have NOS stickers, and don't even have NOS, and NOS doesn't make ur car fast necessarily, it needs to have decent horsepower to begin with, and you have to have the right equipment and know how to use it..... Funkdeal 10-24-2003, 12:17 AM calm down man, i was just joking. the coolest car ive ever seen was probably the bat mobile. it was some old guy driving it like 6 years ago. it was pretty sweet though. S4CamryRanger007 10-24-2003, 12:27 AM Geo's suck Odolye Rules! i think the best car ive seen in terms of being rare would be a Jag XJ220 but my favorite would be the Hartmann Motorspors Audi S4. 96radranger 11-02-2003, 01:33 AM u may think im weird cuz my fav car ive seen this guy that lives buy me has a not to special to u maybe but to me its like my romodel thats what ill drive sumday its a 99 lighting lowered 3 inches stock rims and stuff but does 10 flat its a sleeper other then sound hes got tachs and thats the only thig u can see thats after market this truck rumbles the ground he dynoed it at 725hp and its street he drives it every day the licesne is FRCEFED Funkdeal 11-02-2003, 03:28 AM what the hell is a romodel?? anyways, it would have been a lot cooler if your neighbor would have made it look like a stock f150. the sound wouldn't have been a big disadvantage to the sleeper effect because a lot of people put exhaust on their truck just for the sound. still 725 hp is a lot. diablo gtr* 11-22-2003, 06:38 AM I've seen a 3 Diablos, 512TR, Tesstarossa, 355, about 100+ boxsters, 3 new 911, about 20 older 911s, 4 Vipers, a 928, a few SL500 or 600s and an Esprite about 10 Hummers.

Anyways: Best of Car shows : Ferrari F40, 2 Lamborghini Diablo 6.0's, 2 Lamborghini Murcielagos, 1971 Hemi Challenger, 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda 383 4 speed convertible (only one ever produced), Dino Ferrari, Lamborghini Miura, some year of Shelby GT500, a GT500 with a dashboard signed by Mr. Carrol Shelby, Shelby AC Cobra....I need to stop there before this gets too long.

Wow, how did you do that? Edsels were made from 1958-1959-and the early 1960. Wish I could do that. I guess thats why they call you TheScientist. USMC-HMMWV 06-26-2004, 12:38 AM Tons of Boxsters, 996s, and 993s, as well as various other Porsches. 5 Mercedes SL55 AMGs 4 Ferrari 360 Modenas 2 Ferrari 360 Modena Spyders 1 Ferrari 348 1 Ferrari F40 1 Porsche 911 GT3 at the local Porsche dealer 2 Ferrari 550 Maranello 1 BMW M1 at the local BMW dealer 1 Lamborghini Diablo when I was in Dallas last year 3 Lotus Esprits And of course, my Porsche Boxster S. Yes I know, what's so special about that? Well if you had one as your first car, you'd feel the same way. TheScientist 06-26-2004, 01:11 PM TheScientist, you stood next to a 1957 Edsel?? Wow, how did you do that? Edsels were made from 1958-1959-and the early 1960. Wish I could do that. I guess thats why they call you TheScientist. When I saw it, the plaque on it said "Built on July 31, 1957 for Edsel Division of Ford Motor Company 1958 Production Line." pete54ford 06-26-2004, 03:17 PM Of course it would say for the 1958 product line! LOL, they don't wait untill the same year to build them. :banghead: TheScientist 06-26-2004, 11:54 PM The guy said it was a 1957. So I got the wrong imformation and passed it on. Do you really have to suggest your point enough to give me a negative reputation? :disappoin protzler 06-27-2004, 09:29 PM Cars I see every day (or close to it): Lamborghini: -------------- 2001 Diablo SV (Grey) Mercedes: -------------- 2002 SL500 (Light green metallic) 2004 S500 (Burgundy) 1985 SL300 (Silver) Porsche: -------------- 2004 Cayenne turbo (Black) 2003 Boxster S (Black) BMW: -------------- 2000 X5 (Silver) Ford -------------- 2005 GT (Red) Past cars: -------------- 1989 (I think...Can't remember now) Tessterossa (Sp?). 1 Black, 1 Yellow 1998 Hummer H1 Wagon (Grey) 2000 Hummer H1 Conv.

It was nice, and it really stuck out, not to the point where it was ugly, but to the point where everyone would look. dodge5viper 06-30-2004, 08:40 AM there are loads of great cars ive seen such as tons of ferraris, nissan 350z/skyline etc (the usually good cars) but the ones that really got me excited are the ferrari enzo, koenigsegg ccr and the merc slr (the fastest road legal car in the world) GTI WR6 07-13-2004, 05:13 AM sat inside the Magnesium Silver F1 (chassis #065) at Park Lane last year. got sold for $1.7m. seen a lot of other other exotics as well. Other favourite sighitngs are a Maybach 62 in Knightsbridege, a Diablo 6.0, a Murcielago and a Continental GT in Oxford Streetan , F40 in front of a Patek Philippe store in Central London and a Phantom in front of Harrods. Ledger88 07-21-2004, 06:55 AM seen tons of porches, been in a F355 round a track, seen an Enzo, f40, Pagani Zonda in a motor show. seen an original GT40, Lambo Murcielago and a few ferrari 360's all in liverpool city center (at different times of course). I wanted to go to london to see the F1 cars up close but couldn't get down there on the day, did anyone else go to see them? Sccrplyr06 07-22-2004, 02:31 AM I haven't seen many great cars in my life, mainly because of where I live. But I did get the fortunate chance to see a McLaren F1 LM, and I was able to get a ride in it. That is something I'll never forget. Speedracer38 07-23-2004, 07:58 PM Ive seen everything.... McLaren F1 and SLR, Pagani Zonda S, about...15 Enzos (rode in 1), Bugatti, Porsche 959 (2), Lambo roadster, Jaguar XKJ 220 (sp?), Porsche Carrera GT, and one of my favorites and my friends a Dodge Viper LM Edition!!!

BMW Z8, 3 dodge vipers in a row, 1 billion C5's, and more than that of the other gens, ferrari 360 challenge stradale, a few normal 360's, maybe 15 or so H2's, 2 H1's, quite a few heavily tuned imports, 911 turbo, and the cabriolet version, tons of assorted porsches, 300SL gullwing by you know who, 1st gen NSX, lotus esprit, ford gt40, any other under 100k merc, and BMW, and thats all i can think of for now tanner07 08-02-2004, 01:59 AM I should probably update a bit...

ThatRoundHeadedKid 08-11-2004, 06:50 PM THe other day my mom and I made a U-Turn at Mercedes-Benz North America Corporate HQ's parking lot in Montvale, New Jersey, and I say a Maybach 62 in the lot with the factory 7 spoke rims, except in chrome. It was the two tone black and red wine color. It was very nice. tanner07 08-21-2004, 07:32 PM Saw a silver Continental GT the other day. s4fanatic27 08-23-2004, 08:39 PM Acura NSX (so many) Audi All normal production audi’s RS6 RS4 S6 S8 Aston Martin Vanquish (so many) DB5 DB7 DB9 Vantage coupe, volante Bentley Continental Arnage Mulsanne Azure Turbo RL Bugatti Veyron Chevy Corvette C5, Z06 Dodge Viper GTS, SRT 10 (so many) Ferrari’s 360 ( so many) 360 Spider 512 456m 550 maranello 550 Bart… 575 maranello F 40 F 50 F 333 F335 F 512 Testarossa Enzo, haven’t seen it yet but I know there is a red one in Newport , I will see it someday.

'03 Mclaren-Mercedes F1 car. Original (and only) Roll's Royce "Silver Ghost" youngvr4 09-17-2004, 06:52 PM s7 saleen, shleby series 1, bently continental, barchetta, marenello, shelby cobra's, modena, hell i've seen every ferrari exept the enzo and f-50. mercielago, galardo, diablo's............ TRD2000 09-19-2004, 03:28 PM do you mean the maserati barchetta? they are so cool, saw one a few years back in a road race... most people havent even seen a pic unfortunately. graffix o420o 09-26-2004, 10:09 PM 2 sl65's, 3 sl55's, sl500, porshe gt3, ferrari f50, shelby cobra, lotus exige. all on the street no car shows or dealerships TRD2000 09-27-2004, 05:36 PM you should have limited that to just the f50.... i saw more than the rest in the last 24 hours. GritMaster 09-27-2004, 09:43 PM I won't even attempt to list them but pretty much every car except 4years or newer supercars (CCR, Zonda Enzo etc.) F1, and Xj220 (my favorite car:( ) You can list virtually any car that's under 1mil, and then a few historics that are valued well over that. Best sighting...... I dunno... But I saw a Maserati Merak the other day, cool little car, never seen one before. Seing supercars isn't really all that special to me, I prefer to see some really rare Classic car, But then everyone and there sister owns a high end german or itallian car in my area it seems. TRD2000 09-27-2004, 10:00 PM i'd say it's not worth mentioning the likes of non limited production porsche, Ferrari ETC. if its limited or a proper classic OK, but not every 911 or 360... i mean how many are there? i saw about 30 on the weekend alone! only worthwhile one was MAYBE the brand new GT2... I saw two of them. If someone sees a Carrera GT, a 917K or something then cool... let us know. JW1390 09-29-2004, 06:45 PM I have seen quite a few of the cars ya'll have seen, but the best car I've ever seen, well since it was my favorite was a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 in mint condition. Beautiful red paint with 2 black stripes, the car of my dreams. This is the only one I've ever seen exactly the way I want it. I saw it in my friend's neighborhood, maybe I'll go sneak over and take some pics. jyot soni 10-21-2004, 01:55 PM ok there u have it 10 vipers including 4 srt 10 3 360 madonna including 2 spyders 2 galladaro 2 maybach 57 4 mustang cobra r 3 hummer h1 50+ hummer h2 2 bentlys can't remember which one 1 911 gt3 2 cadillac xlr 5 bmw m5 and m3 2 audi rs6 and 5 audi s4 3 acura nsx 6 MB sl 500 and 7 cl 500 countless corvettes,svt mustangs,boxers,lexus sc430 and many more ThatRoundHeadedKid 10-21-2004, 07:59 PM 3 360 madonna including 2 spyders Modena......... jyot soni 02-28-2005, 12:54 PM excluding the auto shows:: 10 vipers in cluding 3 convertibles 1 lamborghini gallardo 8 f360 including 3 spyders 8 sl 55 amg 25 sl 500 3 xlr countless mustang cobra including 3 cobra r 1 ferrari 355 2 maybachs 1 bently contonental gt{ spelling??} 5 05 acura rl 3 acura nsx 1 jaguar s type r 5 cts v 6 z06 2 '55 vette convertibles flip888 03-05-2005, 08:00 PM about a month ago i saw a ferrari f-40 and then about a week later i saw a lambrogeni diablo coming home from a fishing trip. also on weekends and stuff theres a green 71' hemi cuda that i see around town sometimes. porscheguy9999 03-06-2005, 04:02 PM 3 Ferrari 360 Modena (my dad's cousin owned one that I got to drive in) Including 2 Spyders 1 Ferrari 550 (friend owns one) 1 Ferrari 575 2 Ferrari 456 (friend owns one) 2 Ferrari Testarossa (friend owns one) 1 Bentely Arnage 10+ Mercedes E55 AMG 4 Mercedes S55 AMG 1 Mercedes S600 1 Audi RS6 (friend owns one) 1 S8 5+ S4 20+ BMW M5 (friend owns one) 10+ Jaguar XKR 5 Jaguar XJR and Vandea Plas 3 Acura NSX 50+ Porsche 911 Turbo (friend owns one) 100+ Porsche Boxster 100+ Audi TT 10+ Mercedes SL500, SL55, SL600 5+ Mercedes CL600 50+ Lexus SC430 3 Maserati Coupe/Cabrio 2 Cadillac XLR 100+ Cadillac Escalade (including the ESV Platnium, friend owns one) 2 Cadillac CTS-V 50+ Hummer H2 (friend owns one) 5 Hummer H1 10+ Corvette Z06 20+ Mustang SVT and Saleen 10+ Porsche Cayenne Turbo (friend owns one) 50+ Range Rover (friend owns one) 5+ Mercedes G500 2 BMW 850 CSi 50+ BMW M3 1 Lotus Esprit 1 Caterham Seven Austin Healy (my sister's friend one) Chevy Corvair (friend owns one) 1 Panoz Esperante 2 Viper 1 Ram SRT-10 3 Aston Martin Vanquish All cars I've seen here in Edina (suburb of Minneaplois).
